The Journey By Night

82. And We send down from the Qur'an that which is a healing and a mercy to those who believe (in Islamic Monotheism and act on it), and it increases the Zalimun (polytheists and wrong-doers) nothing but loss.

-Surah Al-Isra'


Two floors above me, there lives a lady who teaches people (mostly kids) to read the Quran. Recently I had the chance to talk to her and now she's also teaching me.

Well, if I'm going to tell my students to make learning a life-long thing, I'll have to lead by example. And it's been years since I had anyone guiding me in my Quran recitation.

Praise God, my recitation has not gone that far downhill. Anyway, she reminds me that one is never too old to learn and the most important thing is to never give up.
Allah SWT gives to whom He wills.

Wish me all the best
